A posthumous Biggie album built from unreleased vocals and expanded collaborations across rap's biggest names.
Born Again extended Biggie’s catalog with posthumous material and star-heavy features during a transition period for Bad Boy. The project leans on unreleased and repurposed vocals placed in new production contexts—an approach that invites debate among fans but also documents how demand for Big’s voice persisted after his death.
For historians, the album sits alongside other late-1990s vault-era releases: it captures a moment when labels experimented with assembling new LPs from fragments, remixes, and marquee collaborations as rap’s mainstream profile continued to grow.
